Even though it is two Rocket engines they have been de-stroked to provide 2970cc. Trivia, or maybe not, the Triumph Bonneville was named after the record setting run in 1955. The T120 Bonneville went on sale in 1959.
So I have been reading about changing conditions at the flats such that they are being threatened with being un-driveable in the not too distant future: something about the cycle of flood and dry being disrupted.
I'm sure people much better informed than me are working with the team such that their considerable investment will turn into publicity-gaining runs.
High hopes for all involved, but most for Bob and Guy. The commitment from all involved to stick with this attempt year after year, fire, flood, injury, determination will get them there.
Cross your fingers for no rain because Guy Martin is the best chance at breaking it, I don't think he knows how to do anything less than 100%.
The best part of all this record breaking stuff is how the hell do they get a 5'-10" guy inside the castrol rocket now the original rider Jason was a wee guy no where near 5-10" and it was a squeeze for him(his words not mine)
